Safeguarding your Business According to Deloitte Touche it is a sad fact of business today that over 85% of companies that suffer a major disruption will be out of business within 18 months. This statistic may seem startling in an age where we insure our businesses against business interruption and loss of profit. Unfortunately it is still very difficult to insure against the downtime caused by a disaster and the consequences and ongoing effect to our credibility and market share. Many large companies spend huge sums on protecting themselves against such an event. All too often the SME doesn’t see it as an issue until it is too late. You don’t want to plan to have a disaster, but you can plan to recover from one as quickly as possible!
